That was a Disney creation. One place where is appeared was at the 1964-65 World's Fair. (Yes, I am old enough to remember that.) One rode for fifteen minutes or so in a boat (yes, there was water) that passed hundreds of animatronic dolls showing every possible ethnic and national stereotype. The United States: cowboys and Indians, of course.
That fucking Lion song
Call me, maybe?
I tried "Friday" - never heard it before - and I gave up after forty-two seconds. I challenge somebody to surpass that.
You two must have a rough time at Christmas every year.
Ugh. Especially the Madonna version of Santa Baby. That weird saccharine Lolita tone with those already cringy lyrics. Just wrong.
I Am also alone
It was a fascinating career: Wham! a singularly awful, but even George Michael soloed, he was actually good. Even got a thumbs-up from Aretha, which is better than a Grammy.
He actually sings pretty well. His stage presence in that video above is a bit hokey. Wham! songs are okay as pure pop I suppose. They are the kind of thing that I expect to hear in a pizzeria that tunes its sound system to a light radio station.
Those were two songs that were too long and a bit overblown. Both were products of their times, and they haven't aged well. I suspect that most people who listened to them were stoned or otherwise under the influence of something. They were played as background music at parties where everybody was too wasted to even have a coherent conversation. Emerson, Lake, and Palmer was another band of that type.
Every band and musician is obligated to put out a bad Christmas song. Not sure where Angry Johnny fits in. The Monroeville Mall was the filming location for 1978's Dawn of the Dead. Thus the zombie theme.
I can't stand them. I was actually having a converstion about these two songs recently as music was the topic. I said along the lines of; if I hear them, somethings getting shot, them, me, or the device, either way is good to me, I won't hear it any more. Ear rape.
